Kid Muscle

Mantaro is the son of Kinniku Suguru and Bibimba, and is the current prince of Planet Kinniku.

He is spoiled and prefers to play rather than fight and train.

He is a serious lecher and will often try to sneak into cabarets and enjo ko-sai cafes (this aspect is toned down in the anime, as he is only 14).

After the Hercules Factory he was stationed in Beverly Park where he lived there with Meat

Mantaro is very cowardly and will often hesitate to fight.

But when his friends are in trouble or his opponents are fighting unfairly, he musters up the courage to fight.

When the fight reaches its climax, he evokes his hereditary Kajiba no Kuso Djikara (Burning Inner Strength) and the Niku Mark appears on his forehead.

He is named after Ultraman Taro (Ultraman + Taro).

Because of this, in the early episodes of the anime he is often mistakenly called Kinnikuman Taro.

Because Suguru had his old fight records annulled, Mantaro never knew how great his father was until he met Meat.

Mantaro uses his father's old techniques the Kinniku Buster and the Kinniku Driver until he develops his own finishing moves, the Muscle Millennium and the Muscle Gravity.

In the Japanese version of the anime, Mantaro has a habit of adding Muscle (Massuru) at the end of certain words and sentences in place of the standard masu.

For example, Itadaki-masu, a common Japanese phrase said before eating, becomes Itadaki-MUSCLE (Itadaki Massuru).

Mantaro's main love interest is Nikaido Rinko, but in both the anime and manga, he lusts after many girls, including Jacqueline Muscle.

Both Rinko and Jacqueline are popular pairings for Mantaro.
